But till too many addons, i use almost all blizzard interface and few for CD's and DBM...

And Bagnon a wonderful addon for the bag space...

Blizzard interface is BEYOND terrible, especially as ret. Holy power in top left corner, character in middle, buffs/procs in top right corner always shifting around. Absolutely terrible design and nearly impossible to keep track of well to min max everything in that format.

While true, it''s REALLY annoying to try and tank with the stock UI, and anyways, weakauras is my all-time favorite addon. so i couldn't go without that.
In the end, it's all personal preff, but keep in mind, addons like weakauras, SuF, bartender allow you so much customization that it's worth losing a few frames on lower end PC's.

I never really understood why people keep their buttons way off on the edge of the screen. They are the core of everything you do, the important ones should be pretty much the first thing you see aside from your characters position and what's going on in the center of the screen. I have mine hidden unless I have a hostile target, I'm in combat or I hold down alt.

Also, the reverse is valid: I cannot understand why do you need a bunch of buttons in the freaking middle of the screen? I, personally, like mine on the edges, to have the most of the screen available for the shitton of adds and crap on the floor raids bestow on us nowadays.. Keybinds R us.

Do you enjoy doing sub optimal dps? It has nothing to do with keybinds, it has everything to do with seeing what ability to press next, which can change at any second.

When your buttons are off at the side, you are constantly glancing at them, way far away from the action. When they're right under "you", you can pretty much see them without needing to shift your attention from what you're doing.

All my keys are bound, if you're suggesting I'm a clicker. How does having them bound to keys let you know what ability to press next in the most efficient way possible? You need to SEE your abilities to see if they're available at any given moment.

There's no way to do this without me coming across as a dick, but I'm going to debunk this immediately.

This is my epeenbot page. By your definition, I should be doing terribly because my UI shares the same 'faults' as what you've suggested.

UI's are a personal decision. There are terrible UI's for sure, but at the end of the day as long as all the information necessary is visible (that means not only your keys, but your surroundings, timers, raid frames and so on) it cannot be criticized based on personal taste alone.

There are UI's here I'd simply refused to play with, but that doesn't mean they aren't functional to it's user. That's just blatant ignorance.

Amen - perception.. is.. everything...... In and out of game. It's one of those fun things that sparks invention and debates.. I think nearly every UI I see is completely hideous and terribly made but to criticize how someone else has something placed on THEIR perception would be foolish.. Hehe :] - Just to clarify for anyone else - PERCEPTION. IS. EVERYTHING.
